  • Page 2 Features Rich Features--- Our ZTS-320series total station carries abundant surveying applications ,at the same time has the functions of data storage, parameter settings and etc .It‟s suitable for all kinds of professional measurements. 1. Absolute code disc Equipped with absolute code disc , the instrument can measure after switched on .Even if reset the battery halfway, the azimuth information will not be lost.
  • Page 3 Notice: Do not look directly into the sun with instrument. Do not leave the instrument in extreme temperatures (too high or too low) or use it when temperature shock. The instrument when not in use, should be loaded in the box , placed in well-ventilate and dry place ,and pay attention to the shockproof ,dustproof and damp-proof.
  • Page 4 Security Guide Please pay attention to the following security matters when using the instrument with non-prism. Warnings: Total station is equipped with rangefinders with laser level 3R/IIIa ，which is recognized by the following logo recognition at the horizon-axis locking knob” of the instrument, saying “Class 3A Laser Product”.
  • Page 5 Class 3R Laser Products are used in outdoors and on building site (with non-prism measurements). The personnel who is specially trained, qualified and authenticated are allowed to stall, adjust and operate these laser instruments. b. Set up corresponding laser warning signs in the use of area range.

Lock the instrument with vertical and horizontal locking knob after aiming at A. 2. Rotate the vertical slow motion knob, move A point to the edge of the field of view (A 'points).

    11.5 Vertical plate index zero automatic compensation Checkout 1. After Setting up and leveling the instrument, make the direction of the telescope consistent with the line between the center of the instrument and any of the foot screw. 2. The vertical plate index change to zero after switching on Tighten the vertical brake handwheel and the instrument display the current telescope vertical Angle.

    5. The following steps see reference in 9.6.1. Note: Repeat the checkout steps to retest the index error again (i Angle). If the index error still can not accordance with requirements , it should check the three steps of calibration index zero setting (in the course of zero setting ,the vertical angle showed is not compensated and corrected, it is just for reference) to see whether it is incorrect, whether the focusing of target is...

    Use the vertical line of the reticle to orientate, make A, B and C at the same line accurately. There must be a clear mark for point B on the ground to focus . Whether the prism center of the point B coincide with the instrument center is the guarantee of checking the accuracy, so, you have better use tripod and all-purpose tribrach, for example, if you change the three-jaw type prism connector with tribrach,...
  • Page 92 Checkout Put the gray side of the reflector towards the instrument, and put it 5 meters and 20 meters away. Start laser direction function. Focus on the reflector center by the telescope crosshair center, then check the position of the red laser point. Generally speaking, the telescope is equipped with special filter, human eyes cann′t see laser point through the telescope, you can see the offset between the red laser point and the reflector crosshair center, you...
